JPMorgan Chase & Co. agreed to sell about $1.3 billion of loans and securities to Sankaty Advisors LLC as the largest U.S. bank pares back non-essential holdings.

The unit of Bain Capital LLC will acquire the assets from JPMorgan’s Global Special Opportunities Group, the companies said Tuesday in a statement. The transaction, which will probably close by the end of the year, won’t have a material impact on the New York-based bank’s earnings, according to the statement.
